A number of activists on social media confirmed the arrest of an unspecified number of injured militants within the ranks of Haftar’s armed groups in the city of Benghazi, over their demands for additional financial support to complete their medical treatment.

The relatives of the wounded and their peers demanded the right to protest in Tibesti Square, calling for the release of the detainees, known to have been transferred to the Tariq Bin Ziyad Brigade, according to their colleagues.

It was noted that the same group of wounded militants carried out a protest stand last Wednesday, prior to being dispersed by force and physically assaulted for having taken such a stand.
